Detailed explanation-1: -Some specific uses of remotely sensed images of the Earth include: Large forest fires can be mapped from space, allowing rangers to see a much larger area than from the ground. Tracking clouds to help predict the weather or watching erupting volcanoes, and help watching for dust storms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Remote sensing satellites are used for gathering information of an object without physical contact by electromagnetic radiation. Hence, it can be used for ground water surveys, crop surveys, military spying but not television broadcasting.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ground-based platforms (towers and cranes), aerial platforms (helicopters, low-altitude planes, and high-altitude planes), and spaceborne platforms are the three primary remote sensing platforms (space shuttles, polar-orbiting satellites, and geostationary satellites).
Detailed explanation-4: -Improving Agriculture via Remote Sensing Satellite Imagery. Saving Wildlife. Assessing Risk. Studying Urban Geography. Managing Disaster Recovery. Image Classification For Urban Expansion. Solar Panel Energy Output Optimization. More items •18-Mar-2022
